On Monday, July 19, AAC and the Pink Line Project teamed up to host a SPEED DATING w/ARTISTS event at POSTE. The event was sponsored by SCION, and featured twenty contemporary artists, all ready to answer the questions of a curious public. Prospective "dates" were given three minutes to talk to each of the artists; additionally, each art-curious potential patron was given a word or phrase that related to only one of the artists present.
